Course Control and Course Workers
This is a sub task assigned by the worker staff. This link outlines the duties of the Course Control worker.
While the event chair runs the event and usually has the last say on things. All events must follow the SCCA rules and regional supplements. The Safety Stewards have the final say on safety items for the entire event.
If you are curious and would like to know more about running an event, come to the monthly Solo meeting, or contact the Northwest Region Solo Officials.
